Best Time Stands Still Poems

Leaping in barefoot abandon
Soaring every which way from Sunday
Laughter effortlessly exhaling cool breezes.

Lounging on nature’s lush carpet
Silhouette illumined by carefree serenity 
Lapping up rays and shining them back

Licorice sticks and crackers and brie
Sweet plumpness of kiwi and mango and peach 
Licking ripe juices off contented...

There is a time when everything stands still,
When life's biggest moments 
Are up close and ever so real
You take my breath away with all your sex appeal
When your eyes meet mine its a really big deal
You really know how to make this man squeal
I was...

My intent is clear...is yours...
Your eyes are as crystal...peering deep into the soul...
Your lips are like sweet honey on my mouth...
I savor every last morsel... until it is gone...

Whispers of love dance in my mind...
Gentle kisses cover my body...slowly but gingerly with great care...consumed by...

time stands still
slow the pace of life
a howling silence
surreal as autumn tenor

all shades of grey
droop overhead
eyes soaking up
most somber thoughts 

piano notes gather in the clouds
blaring echoes of solitude
as silver teardrops collect
in a hollow heart

The cell doesn’t tell me the time so I wait,
   praying for numb-heavy hearts,
splintered shards of the mind...

The Faded Garden Swing

If the flaked paint on the old swing 
could speak, it would tell stories of 
days long ago,
Of children's laughter and their bare, 
muddy feet, 
Of fireflies caught and imprisoned in 
empty jam jars, 
Like the fireflies, my memory flickers, 
trying to...

Time Stands Still

As I tenderly walk in the welcoming field; I feel the warm caress
Of the sweetness of springs wind blowing on my mauve dress
When in this time, time seems to stand so lucidly still
Sometimes I feel our long-distance love affair is standing as a...

Lengthy rolling clause...

The dawns-
acre's of clouds rotating the days on!

I'm in bins,
crushing scores as they collide-
romanticize these additions to the outer rims...

Our planets,

the sea's-
remaining culture's to be released.

I'm the pigment that can never show it's real live-
it's monicor...made up life.

I was away for a day,
came...

Endless space transports my soul
to a place where time stands still.
And though I'm part of the whole,
its vastness gives me a chill.

Galaxies shine above me;
formed billions of years ago.
And yet, today, I still see
light from their initial glow.

Shining stars dazzle and daze;
twinkling in the Milky...

a Walk in-
the woods    with debussy's
prelude to the afternoon
in my ears

time    stands    still

the warmth of the sun
music echoing amongst trees
the chant
of songbirds

oh peace and tranquility embrace

the benedictine monks
of santa domingo
a     single ...

In this very moment 
Time stand still
It hits me every time
Faith refills.

I shake off the emotion
try not to think
but waves of the past
keep me in sync. 

Mystery of pleasure
that can not be described 
Why it matters I don't know
Words never transcribe....

Resting on the water's edge
of a stone birdbath,
its orange feelers  curl 
outward  like tiny
 telegraph coils - transmit schisms 
I witness the microscopic
lapping  of an insect

Not a dragonfly
perhaps a wasp,
 abdomen pumping
like a heart beat between
 clear shining wings
 A seed falls,...

TIC TOC-TIC TOC-TIC-TOC  TIME STANDS STILL FOR NO ONE---

Tic-toc-tic-toc, tic-toc-tic-toc
It could never be your will;
Time stands still for no one;
Premise to the task;
Tic-toc-tic-toc, tic-toc-tic-toc
Whether smooth or rough
You may kill time;
But one day time gonna kill you;
The thrill is here;
But one day the thrill be...

Once Touched All Time Stands Still


Death again, the glorious symphony
mortal man has found his destiny
Once touched all time stands still
darkest hand exists only to kill


Spring, the time of earth's seeds
man rots helplessly in his needs
A few souls live in blessed relief
resting within their holy belief

Summer,...

Time Stands Still

Time stands still 
No flaw in this moment 
Perfection in my eyes 
No anticipation 
Every second worthy 
No minute unnoticed 
Because when I’m with you 
Time stands still...
